Monster Energy Supercross 5 Review

Developed by Italian studio Milestone, Monster Energy Supercross 5 is the latest release in the annual series and the second to release on next-gen consoles.

Monster Energy Supercross 5 - Who will gain the Holeshot? The game is out now on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X, and Steam. Reviewed here on PS5 the title has an install size of 15.37GB.

Slipstream Review

Fans of OutRun and Sonic the Hedgehog 2 unite, for Slipstream is finally here on consoles. The game started out as a Kickstarter project way back in 2016. After reaching nearly $7,000 in backing, it finally came to fruition on PC in 2018. Slipstream was developed by a single developer, Brazilian Sandro Luiz de Paula of Ansdor Games. Slipstream - More Drift Than A Switch Joycon If you're into your retro-styled arcade racers, then you are in for a fun, yet frustrating time.

So, let's put the pedal to the metal and check out this love lette...

Music Racer: Ultimate Review

Developed by AbstractArt, Light Road Games and published by Sometimes You. Music Racer: Ultimate is a rhythm game released on the Xbox One, Series S/X, and Playstation 4/5 on the 3rd of March 2022. It's the successor to the popular Music Racer. So how does this Music Racer: Ultimate review fare? Music Racer: Ultimate - Highway To Headache Town So have to admit that I have never played a rhythm game before. I know there are tons out there with Guitar Hero being the obvious choice among gamers. But the appeal of racing down a track in a fast car and hitting the right notes to the beat of the music seemed like a perfect fit for me. So let's see if I crash and burn in this Music Racer: Ultimate review. If you enjoyed this review then why not check out my latest one here. You can also catc...

Gravity Chase Review

Gravity Chase is the latest retro-inspired anti-gravity racer developed and published by Repixel8 (Velocity G, Formula Retro Racing). Races take place within or outside of tunnel tracks. They require skill and precision to pick up powerups and keep ahead of the competition. Gravity Chase is available on Xbox consoles and Steam as of January 21st, 2022. Gravity Chase may be on rails, but don't let that fool you. As a kid, I never spent much time in what I would consider a full-on arcade. Sure there were some cabinets in places like the movie theater, but not really any buildings dedicated primarily to them. I did spend enough time playing some though to recognize a game that could easily have been in one of those cabinets when I see one. Gravity Chase is certainly one of those games. ...

Horizon Chase Turbo: Senna Forever DLC Review

Ayrton Senna, a name synonymous with Formula 1. You can't even mention the sport without someone bringing his name up. This Brazilian driver, although no longer with us will live on eternally in the minds of fans all over the world. Senna was a driver who was a class act on and off the track but wasn't without his dramas behind the wheel. He knew his limits, and when he beat those limits, he wanted to establish new ones. He had a level of concentration so high that nobody understood how he could achieve such feats. From his first podium in Monaco in his first season in 1984 where it was hammering down with rain, in a car the spent its previous years either retired or not even qualifying, to his first maiden win at his home Grand Prix of São Paulo in 1991 with a car that had gearbox issu...

WRC 10 Review

It's Autumn, which means it's time for another WRC game. Often with annual releases, updates are usually quite minimal, but that's not always necessarily the case. WRC 10 builds upon the successes of the previous game which was already a huge leap forward from its predecessors. A lot of the game is largely the same, so we will briefly touch upon those points but focus more on the updates. WRC 10 - It's a Bit Dirtier Developed again by KT Racing and published by Nacon, the franchise is also set for another year. WRC 10 was released almost a year to the day since WRC 9 on September 2nd, 2021, and is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC, with a release planned for Nintendo Switch at a later date. Check out my review for WRC 9 here for an in-depth l...
